The Lantera^® 450 Grande XL Guest Lodge makes the perfect sleeping quarters. Perfect if you have family staying round but don't have the space inside your home to accommodate them, or if your kids want a sleepover and you don't want to be disrupted then the lodge is an ideal getaway. It's fully insulated to keep you warm and cosy and has a handy Toilet Cubicle meaning you won't get disturbed in the middle of the night with your kids, friends or family coming into the house to use the toilet.

Our guest lodges are temporary structures designed for occasional accommodation.

The Plug and Play Toilet removes the hassle of plumbing of a flushing toilet as there is no need to arrange new sewer access. It gives you the flexibility to place the lodge wherever you wish in your garden as this is a no plumbing solution. It's also going to save you the time and money you would spend on getting someone to install a flushing toilet. It's just as easy to use and as clean as a caravan toilet is and is a convenient alternative to having to go up to the house to use the toilet.

The TripleTherm^® Walls are designed to retain and reflect heat, with the highest quality insulation that's a bone-warming 50% better than polystyrene. It’s easy to see why two walls are better than one and the use of highly durable materials make this a very warm force to be reckoned with.

So make a commitment to your garden building and let it know you'll always be around with the comfy, cosy, life is rosy, keep me toasty TripleTherm^®. With 70mm of weather fighting, high density foil backed foam sheets sandwiched between its sturdy timber this modern solution will make you want to move in permanently.
